"Becoming a fishing instructor can be your gift back to the sport you love," said Mark Beauchesne, who coordinates the Let's Go Fishing program for Fish and Game. "Somebody gave his or her time to teach you. Here's your chance to return the favor." Experienced anglers are needed to teach all aspects of fishing to youth and adults through the Let's Go Fishing program. Volunteer teachers offer instruction on basic fishing skills, fly-fishing, saltwater fishing and ice fishing. The Let's Go Fishing instructor training, offered annually, will give you the skills needed to teach fishing to a diverse audience. After completing the workshop, participants have the opportunity to join an existing team of volunteer instructors who present programs across the state. Instructor applications also will be available the day of the training. The Let's Go Fishing program teaches the skills and ethics of fishing and introduces thousands of people each year to an outdoor activity that fosters good stewardship of New Hampshire's aquatic resources. The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department works to conserve, manage and protect the state's fish and wildlife and their habitats, as well as providing the public with opportunities to use and appreciate these resources.
